Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper

HI again,

I needed a card for a cyclist so this DSP with the bikes from the Design A Daydream 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#159161) is perfect. This pack of DSP is a Host product and is great value with 48 sheets with a great range of designs and colours.

I cut the scalloped edge of the DSP and the Coastal Cabana card (#131302) with a die from the Around The Bend Dies (#160649). The Pool Party card (#124391) was cut with a die from the Artisan Additions (#159172).

“Happy Birthday” is from the Peaceful Moments stamp set (#151595) and stamped with Pool Party ink (#147107). I used the Stitched With Whimsy Dies (#155314) for the stitching around the sentiment and on the DSP. The sentiment was matted with Coastal Cabana card. The corners were punched with the Detailed Trio Punch.

The DSP was matted with the Coastal Cabana scallops, then attached to the Pool Party card front. This was attached to the Basic White base card (#159228). The sentiment was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Glossy Dots Assortment embellishments (#158827) were added to the card.

Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder & Die

Hi friends,

The Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder & Die (#159168) is a set that can be used together or separately. You can use the embossing folder as normal, or you can fit the die into the embossing folder and you can cut and emboss at the same time. I have used both on this card.

For the Very Vanilla (#106550) background I embossed with the embossing folder. Firstly I inked one side of the folder with Soft Sea Foam ink (#147102) then ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (#149653). I chose the de-embossed side as this added the colour nicely to the leaves. This card was attached to the Pear Pizzazz card (#147104) and a piece of Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper (#159161) was added to the side. The Gold & Vanilla Satin-Edged Ribbon (#159555) was wrapped around the cardfront, then attached to the Very Vanilla base card.

The sentiment from the Framed Florets stamp set (#161815) was stamped with Soft Sea Foam Ink (#147102) using the Stamparatus (#148187). I then re-stamped this with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed this with Clear Embossing Powder (#155554) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). The Beautiful Shapes Dies (#158046) were used to cut the sentiment and the Pear Pizzazz card underneath.

The gold leaves were cut and embossed with the Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder & Dies. The Gold is from the Brushed Metallic 12”x12” Cardstock (#153524). 2 of the leaves and the sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Classic Matte Dots (#158146) were added to finish the card.

The flowers are stamped with VersaMark (#102283) onto Blackberry Bliss card (#133682), embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554), then set with the Heat Tool (#129056).

I used Blackberry Bliss card for “sending” and the background for is Basic White card (#159228). All these were cut with the Sending dies.

The Designer Series Paper is from the Design A Daydream DSP (#159161). This is a Stampin’ Rewards product is is great value with 48 Sheets included and with a great variety of designs. I matted this with Blackberry Bliss card and attached it to the Basic White base card.

Hello friends,

The beautiful floral image from the Blessings Of Home stamp set (#157930) has been gold embossed onto Designer Paper for this lovely subtle card.

I stamped the flowers with VersaMark (#102283) onto the Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper (#159161). This DSP is a host set and great value with 48 sheets in the pack. I used Gold Stampin’ Embossing Powder (#155555) which was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). The sentiment from the Artistically Inked stamp set (#154542) was also gold embossed.

The hexagons were cut with Beautiful Shapes Dies (#158046). The gold paper is the Distressed Gold 12”x12” Specialty Paper (#159237). The Gold Foil (#132622) banner was cut with a Stylish Shapes Die (#159183). The hexagons were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I backed a piece of Petal Pink card (#147009) with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting with a Flowers Of Home Die (#157938) for the 2 floral stems. Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#158130) were added to finish the card.

Wild & Sweet stamp set

Hi & welcome my friends,

We have the occasional koala on our property (not as many as we used to have visit us) so was very excited to see this cute koala image as part of the Wild & Sweet stamp set (#158775).

I stamped the koala with Smokey Slate ink (#147113) onto Basic White card (#159228). I used Ivory Stampin’ Blend (#154922) to colour the koala, Soft Sea Foam (#154902) & Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends (#154882) for the tree branches and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885) for the leaves. I also added some glitter to the koala with the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897). I lightly blended the background with Balmy Blue ink (#147105) and a Blending Brush (#153611).

The stamped image & Old Olive card (#106576) were cut with the Deckled Rectangles Dies (#159173). I dry embossed the Old Olive card with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder (#156406). I gold embossed the edges of the Old Olive card and the stamped image with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Stampin’

Emboss Powder (#155555) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). See tip below.

I backed a piece of Old Olive card with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting the leaves from the Delicate Edges dies (#159180), then attached this to the base card.

The base card is Very Vanilla (#106550). The designer paper is from the Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper (#159161). This is a Host product so can be used with Stampin’ rewards with a qualifying order. There are 48 sheets in this pack so is great value.

“Happy Birthday” is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) and also Gold Embossed. A Stylish Shapes Die (#159183) was used for the sentiment. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the sentiment and the Koala to the card.

TIP: To gold emboss the edges of the rectangles, I wiped the edges of the card onto the VersaMark pad, added the Gold embossing powder then set it. If you find that there is too much powder, I used a small brush to wipe off the excess before setting it. If you feel there isn't enough powder, set it first then re-apply the VersaMark & powder and heat set it again.
